So I just built a computer that that I had to use extra adapter on. I have a 24 pin adapter and also a 6 to 8 pin adapter because the power supply that I am currently using the connectors were not long enough. I am using:
Case: Deepcool Kendomen ATX mid tower
Gigabyte GA-Z97M-D3M
16 GB RAM
I7 3.4Ghz processor
no video card yet
The adapter for the 24 pin works (turn it on before I put on the main connector to see if it was power the motherboard) but when I use the 6 to 8 adapter on the ATX_2x4 my computer does nothing. I am not sure what I am doing wrong since the motherboard needs an 8 pin connector for it to work?
